Find out what types of funds you can use to pay for your tuition fees and living costs. Types include: self-funding, educational loans and scholarships. Self-funded (your own or parent's money) If you are a self-funded student, you can use your own money, or money from a parent, legal guardian, or in very limited cases a partner. If you aren't using your own money, you'll need to show that you have the person's permission to do so. Educational loans An educational loan means you are borrowing money to pay for your tuition fees. This may be provided by a government department or an educational loans scheme. Scholarship If you have a scholarship this means you are receiving money to study from a university, your home government, the British government or an international company or scholarship agency.
